Important! : Parts you need to turbo your saxo and basic costs involved

[perryvt]

So is that all u need 2 put a turbo into a saxo that cheap??

Where do all the parts come from and how much would it cost to get it fitted or cud u do it urself with some effort?

Sounds a good idea wat bhp wud i b looking at from a turbo in a 1.4 with decent cams and a rolling road remap?

What sort of power would mk2 vtr turbo at about 6psi be running power wise?

[blackie_2k5]

could be anything, depends on too many factors, eg engine condiotion turbo condition other mods, what mani you use mapping more importantly what choice you even make for fueling

[turbod_vtr]

looking on ebay i dont know what turbo flange i should be looking at? or what turbo to get??
have a mk2 vtr
i have many questions if some would could help me that would be great.
great guide!
cheers

turbo wise you can get a gt28 off a 200 sx you will also need the manifold

you can then cut the 200s mani up and weld all the bits to your saxo manifold

i would also recommend running 6psi boost as i have found @ 8psi saxo gearboxes just dont cut it(i have to heavy foot) and will die in a short time so far the diesial gearbox is doing well and is by far the best option (unless you can afford Quaif internals) the gears are longer but the boost makes up for it.

[turbod_vtr]

what sort of fueling/mapping are you running? setup?

[stevie__mc]

its a good guide. and good price but its all a lot of hasel getting parts and getting it setup etc lmao

[stueebaby]

If vtr capable upto 200 bhp wat will a vts pull out the bag?

[jaytay]

think that kinda answers everything really great guide

[chris666]

well by mates vts turbo is pushing neely 250 bhp but i need a new custom remap due to cams, to higher the rev range and fueling

Could you put links up to everything that you need to buy, i.e where you can buy it from online. Thanks.

What turbo manifolds are available for vts engines? I know theres the dp and miltek but the miltek ones are a pain to get hold of and cituning arent the best ive heard at getting parts sent to you. The dp is expensive, is there any others out there?

[Sophia_Bush]

try looking on the cituning website they do the manifold and downpipe as seperates now not exactly that hard

[sliderz]

295 for mani or 445 for mani plus downpipe vts
8v is even cheaper 245 mani 395 all

I didnt know they sold them seperate on the site. Found them now though, good price for them both tbh, is there much difference between power, torque gains with the dp one?

What sort of figure is acceptable for term of reliability, i dont want it to be offroad being fixed because gearbox has gone or driveshafts snapped, etc. I heard that anything over 300bhp the gearbox will need upgrading to a BE ideally.

[Jungle]

you cant have a fast reliable saxo.. it doesnt exist

If you looking for more than 300bhp you will need to spend ALOT of money, the stuff in this thread is very very very basic

verry good guide

What size (mm's) would this be?

[Liam88]

great thread might have to think about this mod for my vts cheers

just walk into citroen dealership and ask for the biggest they got, will cost around £60 for it, alternatively for low boost you can get a 1.9mm HG which will be enough
